It's sad to think about everything that he's going through
these types of living conditions don't happen overnight
it takes a long time for it to get to this point
this was known as a as a sanctuary
here in Florida and as we've seen while we've been here this is anything but an
animal sanctuary
and you can see where he's got
he is missing pretty much his entire upper lip
many of these cats have illnesses that have been going on
for what appears to be years
it's a little bizarre it kind of looks like
like another limb coming out of his chest that's how
cylindrical it is it's definitely a bizarre looking mat
I don't even know how you'd describe that
for me there's no better feeling than knowing that the animals I helped
remove today
are gonna move on and have a better life
yesterday it was a little bit of a
frantic environment there was over 700 animals that we were rescuing
from chaos
there are deceased animals for the
to come here at the shelter it's very calm
I think they sense that they're safe
it's amazing to know that he is on his way to recovery
one cat in particular that we noticed was in poor condition
had some issues with his eyes, we believe he is completely blind right now
the positive side is now he's in excellent
hand and he is on his road to recovery and eventually will be on his road to
his permanent home
it really puts into context how horrible the conditions are when you see
them thriving in the environment here and how different it is
and it's really a beautiful thing
to be a part of
we're here to protect them and take them away from that situation and their lives are going to be different now
and it's almost like they can tell
